After investigating over one hundred homicides, Ryan can never forget the tragedies and the victims, even after his retirement from the police force. In The Ghosts That Haunt Me, he reflects on six of the many cases that greatly impacted him seven people whose lives were senselessly taken and that he still thinks about nearly every day.

This is a memoir from a detective who worked in the homicide division of the Toronto police department for more than a decade. This book chronicles the cases that are most haunting from his time there. That said they‘re pretty disturbing cases. This novel also gives an insider look on the wear and tear on the investigator. If you can handle the sometimes graphic descriptions of awful homicides this is very well written.

The description of this book on #NetGalley drew me in immediately. It met my expectations and I‘d absolutely read more of this genre. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in true crime, police procedures, homicide investigations, and memoir. If you‘re a fan of Law & Order: SVU, I would put this on your must-read list. Thank you NetGalley and Dundurn Press for providing this book for review consideration! 4⭐️
